At the time of your writing, Wheezy was in deep freeze already, which
means that adding new features to it was a no-no already... and it is
even more so now that Wheezy was released as the new Debian stable.
I'm sorry.

However, someone might want to maintain a backport of poedit 1.5.4-1
and later in wheezy-backports.

Cheers,

Bug#693529: poedit: Current testing release lacks support for message context

[Andreas Rönnquist]

Package: poedit
Version: 1.4.2-5
Severity: wishlist


Is there any chance to try to get a freeze exception for 1.5.4 that is in
unstable to get it into testing? Testing has got 1.4.6, which lacks support for
msgctxt, which would be a heavy blow to some translators.

I am a translator of a program that is migrating context format from
Q_(context|string) to C_(context, string), which is only supported in
poedit 1.5.0 or later, and it would really nice to have a poedit with support
of the feature available in the next stable Debian release.

Or, if that isn't possible, a backport of the only that functionality? I guess
that is a whole lot of work though, and not quite reasonable...

best regards
